im a teen and didnt ever had a bf but i remember my friend being depressed over one guy and that was a weird time. after that she had a bf every few weeks and now shes like 'single pringle' and then 'i want a bf so bad'
i think some teens just want a bf to feel like theyre more mature and they dont even have any feelings towards their partners

in that case, even tho its seems petty, there are people other who were broken by other people, their trust their belive their hope in other people, so although it is a very glum way to look at grown-up relationship I don't think that it comes from a petty place most times but from a broken place that has lost hope and believe in a true genuine love and care from other people ecpeshily a partner.
(and not nesseserly from a past lover, even growing up seeing a bad example of love from parents or older siblings can affect it)
the original writer might have come from a bit of a petty place but always keep in mind that there is always a chance somebody actually has had been hurt by other people and so his ways of viewing things like love come from that place
I enjoy my 19 years without having a boyfriend. So Why the hell a 13-16 years old crying and saying "I can't live without you." How fuck is that impossible!? Are u insulting me dumbass?
